THE HINsDALE RIOT.
Probable Cause of Wednesdays
Riot at That Place.


Special TO the Globe.
DULUTH, Mimi, Dee. 2S.-The follow
ing extract from a letter written by
Hinsdale quarryman to friends in this
city, was published in the Herald this
evening: 1.-The Duluth Daily News of the
21St says that matters are rushing at the
Hinsdale quarries, but l wish to state
that all men quit work Dec. IS and will
not again 90 to work until they get
their November pay. The company has
not given the men any satisfaction as
yet, and when they Will pay is unknown
to all, even to those who say things are
rushing 4 few men, those who could
do it, have already gone away, and there
would be more had they their
money. Christmas is neal and it is
decidedly uncomfortable for men toIStay
here waiting for their hard-earned
money, with no immediate prospect of
getting it. Could the writer of the par
agraph in the News see the quarters
where the men now are and will prOba-
bly, have to stay, he would feel entirely
different about rush. 1t is highly
probably, judging from this letter, that
a lack of money was the primary cause
of Yesterdays disturbance. The Min
neSota Granite company, which operates
these quarries, state that the reason of
the nOn-payment of the men is their in
ability to get from the Chicago AuditO-
rum company any satisfactory eSti
mates on the work done for that COM
pany on the contract for supplying
stone for the Auditorium building,
amounting to 100000.

PALMER ON PROHIBITION.
His Views on the Much Abused
Temperance Question

Temperance Question.
DETROIT Mich, Fec. 2S.-In an iIls
terview published here to-day Senator
Palmer expresses himself as follows ola
the temperance question: Il am Re-
publican first, last and all the time, and
for that very reason | am anxious that
the Republican party should keep pace
with public sentiment on the liquoI
question, and for that very reason
talked as l did at the conference of the
Republicans at the Michigan club, and
still more emphatically to the New York
Tribune"
''It was current here that you pre-
dicted that the Republican party would
declare for prohibition and make the
fight for that ISSUE"
THAT the Republican party will de.
stroy the saloon is not a prophecy, it is
merely an observation. Read the his
tory of that party and note the char
acter of its personnel. Its strength
lies in the homes, the school,
houses and the churches of the
land. The saloon is the enemy
of all three. The party's purpose is
the elevation and happiness of the citi-
zen; the saloon is in politics and is in
to stay until destroyed. That can be
seen with the eyes and heard with the
ears. 1t needs no proof. 1t arrogantly
confronts the Republican party-just
now somewhat weakened by the defec-
ton of free trade mugwumps and mis-
guided third party temperance men-i
and challenges it to combat. Is therel
anything in the history of the Republics
can party to warrant doubt as to whaGl
answer it will returnT'
"HOw and where do you expect the
opening skirmish to begin?'
"Unless you refer to local and statal
struggles, 1 should say, where the
national battle against slavery was
sought to be first formed, in the District
of Columbia. If the drink problem can
be solved by law in that district it will
be accepted as a full solution without
further trial. / think that a bill to
abolish the traffic in the district will be
urged upon congress this session. Ie
has been already introduced in the
senate by Mr.. Platt, and you make a
note that it was not introduced for buns
cOmbe nor for fun"
